    I bought this to replace a Netgear C7000v2 that had to be reset at least once a day and never got more than 50% of the internet speed available on my service plan. This modem, paired with an OrbiPro, has been rock solid since I installed it 1 month ago. It never needs resetting. It gives me 100%, and often more, of the internet speed on my service plan. Interfaces flawlessly with the OrbiPro wireless router and satellites.

    After getting set up with internet in my home with Xfinity, the techs couldn't get the system working and they left their modem at my home. I was able to get it working, but their modem was not good, so I purchased this one and took theirs back to them. The Netgear modem is excellent and the speeds are great. I have paired it with my Netgear Nighthawk router and they are working terrific together. I highly recommend this modem.

    I have the Comcast/Xfinity Triple Play (Cable TV, Internet and Home Security). I previously had the voice feature but replaced it with the home security because I never used the voice feature and wanted gig speed. This modem is one that allows gig speed. I get well over 900 Mbps on my desktop and over 500-600 Mbps on my iPhone. I also have the Netgear Orbi router to go with this modem. I highly recommend this cable modem. Easy to install too.

    I bought this modem to replace my existing xfinity router. Set up was a breeze, didn't even have to call xfinity and the instructions are included. The only bad thing for some is that it only has 1 ethernet output, but I am using it with my linksys ea9500 which has many outlets so it wasn't a big deal. The two of these work amazing together and the modem is very small and lightweight. Just make sure you get a router as well if you plan to use WiFi as this is only a modem.

    Great Modem....great speed works well with the router and it replaced us renting from Xfinity. Just as fast if not better than the modem/router combo provided by xfinity.

    We recently changed internet carriers due to desperately needing faster speeds and we decided to try NETGEAR - CM1000 Ultra-High Speed to help maximize the upgrade and it has been excellent. It was initially challenging to break the $200 mark, but I would recommended it. It works great and we recently learned that in the next year or so many internet providers are going to be upgrading to 3.0 or higher and this unit will not require us to do any additional upgrades.

    So far it's been great. I upgraded from an 8x4 channel and all the additional channels have made a huge difference with our speed and reliability. A bit pricey compared to other modems but the additional channels and the docsis 3.1 support should give you some "future proofing". Plus in all reality it will pay for itself after a while with the money you save on the equipment rental from your ISP.

    Upgraded to gigabit internet, and my old Surfboard modem wasn't fast enough. Saw a thread on Reddit that recommended the Netgear modem over the Surfboard DOCSIS 3.1 one, so I decided to go for it. Installation was easy, I did have to call Comcast to have them add it to my account and after they sent the reset signal it started working right away. Easily hitting the gigabit speeds I'm paying for so I'm happy!

    Brought it for Optimum Internet 1GB Plan and it works out well. Don't need to contact Optimum to change the modem address because was able to use the do-it-yourself way. Modem is up and running less than 10mins. Good Bye Modem Rental Fee. Thank you for the same-day shipping too!

    If your provider supports it, get it! My service was constantly suffering from extreme drops in speed, 430 average to 20-30Mbps. After testing my router, I determined the issue to be the modem. I have had no issues with service any more and have even noticed an increase, 475 Mbps average now. Can't say this will be true for all but am pleased with its performance.

    Best Modem for Gigabit Internet

    This modem rocks! For Xfinity gigabit service you need a docsis 3.1 modem. Xfinity has certified 3, an Arris SB8200, Motorola MB8600 and of the Netgear CM1000. I tried the Motorola MB8600 because it was cheaper. I decided on the Netgear. Activation was simple, I just call customer service and told them I had my own modem and would like it activated.You can also do it online, but I wanted to make sure everything was handled correctly.

    Been dealing with knuckleheads at Cox cable. They said I needed to upgrade by Motorola surfboard to docsis3.1 to get the full benefit of my download speed. I upgraded with this device and the price point was great including a 15% discount for trading in old modem

    So far this device is the best I've owned. It works great with my Luma routers and is definitely an easy setup. Since setup, I haven't experienced ant problems and is able to handle the multiple WIFI devices in the house without any bottle necking or slowness in internet connection. It was well worth the price. I highly recommend for anyone who needs a modem that can handle multiple internet connected devices.

    Great modem to be future proof

    I only have 200mbps DOCSIS 3.0 service at my house, but got this modem to make sure I was ready to upgrade to 1gbps+ once the price comes down. The backward compatibility seems to be great and now I will be ready for faster speeds in the future. This modem is easy to mount sideways if you remove the screws off the base it easily detaches. I put some little rubber feet on it so air flows better and it has been running fine on it's side.
